Is there a way to import timesheets from an excel spreadsheet into Projects?
We have external consultants that fill in timesheets on a spreadsheet, as well as timesheets from our customer systems that are in an excel spreadsheet.

Field Dependency in Task Fields
Please consider introducing field dependencies such as you are doing it on Zoho Desk. Yesterday I was customizing a Task layout for the first time where I did require to relate 2 fields and I did assume that Projects would already have this feature because it was already being presented in another Product from Zoho but to my surprise I've found out that there isn't a dependency feature in Projects. Below is the "Field Dependency" option menu from Zoho Desk. This feature is not a full fledged solution

Simply export / import tasks in a project
Hi, Given a Zoho project, I have exported all its tasks into a .xls or a .csv file. Then in order to correctly import my tasks into my project back, I need to : - edit the exported file to remove its header information (or the import tool won't find any columns, except one for the project name) - indicate to the import tool, within the file which column stands for each task information (task name -> task, % -> % complete ...)

Can email notifications be opt in rather than opt out?
Could you please make it so that email notifications are opt in for users and not opt out? We may have to stop using Zoho. Some of my colleagues like and use it; others don't want to experience the details of project management—they just want to be updated verbally at meetings. Sure, they can configure their own settings, but why do I have to make them do that? Many will just say: make this stop; I don't care if it means that you have to stop using this tool. I guess I could give the an alias email
Managing Prepaid Hours for Consulting
We are a consulting firm that bills clients a flat upfront annual fee plus an hourly rate and offer a discount for pre-paying a block of hours. Hours that surpass the pre-paid block are billed monthly at the normal rate. If there are any pre-paid hours remaining at the end of the project they are banked for future use. I'm not seeing a method of doing this in Projects/Books/CRM... thoughts?

Using this, it is possible to duplicate the data from an existing project into a new project. When creating a project template select the option "Choose from Projects" and select the project which you want to clone or duplicate to reuse

Dear Zoho: I have been using BasecampHQ and they allow the Admin to do anything to the Users.

I highly recommed changing this to give the Admin more rights. Thanks, Andy Andy Jacobs
